- Central America ↗Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua (CA-4) give one shared entry allowance, usually 90 days in total; leaving for Belize, Costa Rica or Mexico and coming back does not always reset it — check with immigration before a long stay.
- Central America ↗Cross land borders in daylight and early in the day; many posts close or empty of transport by late afternoon, and the approaches are where robberies happen.
- Central America ↗Several borders charge entry, exit or municipal fees in US dollars (Belize exit, Nicaragua entry and exit, Honduras entry); carry small, clean US notes and ask for a receipt.
- El Salvador ↗Check entry rules for your passport with El Salvador's migration authority or a Salvadoran consulate; the CA-4 agreement with Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua can make your permitted stay count across all four.
- El Salvador ↗A state of exception has been in force since 2022, suspending some legal protections: carry your passport or a copy, cooperate at checkpoints and avoid photographing police, military or prisons.
- El Salvador ↗Carry US dollars in small notes; bitcoin acceptance has been voluntary since 2025 and few businesses take it.
- San Salvador and the centre ↗Visit the Historic Centre in the morning on a weekday and leave by early afternoon; take a car door to door.
- San Salvador ↗Under the state of exception, police and military checkpoints are routine: carry your passport or a clear copy, stay calm and follow instructions. Read your own government's travel advice before you go.
- San Salvador ↗Use an app car or a hotel-booked taxi between districts and after dark; do not walk between the centre, Zona Rosa and Escalón.
- San Salvador ↗See the historic centre on a weekday morning and leave by early afternoon.
